  1. Johnny Mingo and Miles Sanders. Maybe Ian Thomas is next.
  2. Based on the details, this seems like a fantastic move. Solid back for next to nothing. Most Cowboy fans are wondering wtf. Suppose the Cow gals will make RB a top priority in the draft.
  3. Guy averaged 4.6 ypc on a team that had almost no passing attack to speak of. And we signed him for 1 year. Seems like a good deal and will give us a solid backup for CH.
  4. Have to see the details such as how much is guaranteed, but on the surface, this seems like a deal that will ensure the Steelers continue to struggle for several years.
  5. Statiscally, Darnold and Smith are about the same. Not sure why Seattle would dump Smith to get Darnold, especially given that Darnold is likely going to cost more. I guess we will see how I turns out.
  6. Might be wise of him to take a page out of Luke's book. Retire before the body is completely fried.
  7. I would hate to see us take a WR. Its not our worst position, not even close. DE or LB should be the pick.
  8. Yeah, I said that before morning coffee. You are correct. My point was though that the market for safeties is higher than it use to be. And will soon go higher. I would gladly see the team pay more than 10 million for Jesse Bates. Whether this fellow is worth it, I have no idea.
  9. About half the starting safeties in the NFL make 10 plus a year. Within a year or two, that number will likely rise to around 20 of the starting safeties.
  10. Well, you never really know. Analyst get it wrong all the time. A lot of people thought Trubisky was better than Mahomes. Cam Ward could end up being great. But I personally wouldn't take the risk if I were the Cardinals GM/Owner. Get someone who will make the team better and maybe draft a qb later.
  11. I read today that the Cardinals might swap Murray for a first round pick. They may want to draft Ward or Sanders. Personally, I would keep Murray over either of those two, but you never know.
  12. The mostly likely scenario for us moving up would be if Sanders or Ward is available when it comes to our time to pick. Unlikely, but possible.
  13. Would be great to trade back IF Someone is willing to give us enough to make it worthwhile.
  14. Maybe, maybe not. Blackshear wasn't drafted, he was an undrafted free agent. So we may plan to bring someone else in without drafting anyone.
  15. I can agree with that. Fwiw, I wish we would go back to the 4-3 and bring in a more traditional defensive end. That being said, I will point out that some thought Thomas Davis would be a safety when we drafted him. It was of course clear early that lb was his best position.
  16. Didn't say that at all. Getting a guy as good as Shaq Thompson would not be a failure at all. Might not be optimal, but it certainly wouldn't be a disappointment.
  17. If Luke is the comparison, then we are likely doomed. Players like him come around only once in a while. We need a infusion of talent on defense and the first round is only one part of it. If he turns out be to be a Shaq Thompson, but we also add a Charles Johnson or Mike Rucker and a Mike Minter in later rounds, I will be happy.
  18. Agreed. Fwiw, I still have hope that Tepper will get better. He seemed to take a more hands off approach this past season.
  19. Well, I can't see anyone moving up to take him. So if he is the pick at 8, its because the front office was hitting the bong a little to hard.
  20. I generally agree, but I think with wealth and fame, the temptations might be to great for some people to handle. I am not sure I could have when I was in my 30's. I think I could have, but can't say with certainty.
  21. Its a crapshoot in the first round as well. Well, maybe not a crapshoot, but the failure rate of first round picks is higher than most believe. I read that less than half of first round picks are with the team they started with after four years, most of them gone because they didn't live up to first round expectations.
  22. NCSU's coach went to a final four last year. His seat isn't hot.
  23. I am ok with it. We need to much on defense to waste a pick on a qb right now. We need a veteran backup, and might as well go with the guy we know. If Bryce goes down for a short time, then Andy is good enough to win a game or two if we put more talent around him, especially on defense.
  24. I think Malik Nabers did with 9 drops. Although I am sure Nabers got targeted more.
